″++WAFFENFABRIK BERN K11 7.5X55MM″

Waffenfabrik K11 in Good condition. (lightly worn rifling). All matching serial numbers. Support troops, cavalry, and certain other units required a shorter rifle, so the Swiss designed the Model K11, smaller and lighter than the rifle, and still very accurate. It became a favorite of the Swiss Army, and its popularity contributed to the design of its successor the K31. Production of the K11 included conversion of the model 1900 and 1905 short rifles to the newer specifications; the earlier short rifles are rarely found in their original state.
